SPSS Not Supported on New Macs

SPSS does not recommend or support the use of any version of SPSS for Mac OS X on the new Intel-based Mac hardware. Some of the procedures will result in incorrect numerical calculations under the Rosetta emulation software, rendering the results invalid.

Information regarding the release of a version of SPSS for Mac OS X compatible with the new Intel-based Macs will be posted to www.spss.com in the second half of 2006.

Product(s) Affected:
Product Version
SPSS 13

Update: Info from SPSS

In a nutshell
This is worse than it not working at all. In this case it works but yeilds invalid results. This is very bad for folks doing research and depending on their findings arrived at using this software on these computers.
